If you haven't noticed, Karius is close to coming back. Through the almost weekly—sometimes going up to a few times a week—updates by him gave us a bit of calm, we're still nervous.
He's finished with all the surgeries, which means that once those stitches come out, he'll be ready to fight for his first team spot.
Should we let him have it so suddenly though?
Mignolet, though we may be wary of him, has done very well. The six goals we have conceded this season weren't only on him, or even on him at all. That was the team/defense letting him down, whether it be Lallana staying on the ball too long or Clyne having one of his rare malfunctions (because he's a cyborg, only way he can have such a solid season and not get injured with all those matches). This doesn't mean that the only answer is to sign a left back or a "hard" midfielder, but to train those problems out. After more training, Lallana will learn to be more smart on the ball with his new position and Clyne will know what to do and what not.
Then again, it can be argued that at one point that Mignolet will have his remembered dips in form when every shot that comes at him is an obvious goal due to something wrong he's done.
Karius comes with his flaws as well, with his aggressive goalkeeping style picking him up a red card in the Bundesliga. The Premier League could be less forgiving.
So, who do you think it will be?
Yeah, I'm asking you guys.
Let's debate it out whether Klopp will continue to stick with who he already knows and let the other one heal and do cup matches, or will he put Karius in the second he gets.
Once the cast on his right hand is out, he is technically ready to play should Klopp decide it.
And if Mignolet would have had a good spell in between the sticks while Karius may, at first, fail, who knows.
I won't put up who I believe will start when everything is settled because that may mess with your own thoughts. Not that I think that I'm that great but . . .
Post down in the comments who you think it will be!
